A
Complete Guide to Mount St. Helens National Volcanic Monument : For Hiking,
Skiing, Climbing & Nature Viewing
Klindt Vielbig
Native Americans called Mount St. Helens Loowit (Lady of Fire), and
warned unheeding settlers to stay away. In 1980 the mountain proved out
the Indian legends, erupting with enough force to send up a mushroom cloud
45 miles across and create the largest landslide in recorded history. This
handy and well-organized guide provides all the historical, geological,
biological, and recreational information you'll need to take advantage
of a truly unique natural area. It's conveniently divided into four sections:
Mount St. Helens West, East, South, and North. Each section begins with
the lay of the land and general driving directions for scenic tours. A
selection of hikes follows, each with a capsule description that includes
elevation gain, length of hike, what maps to use, the best season to visit,
and a difficulty rating. Trailhead driving routes are also provided. If
you're hankering to walk, bike, horseback, ski, or take a scenic drive
through post-volcanic devastation, or if you want to see just how quickly
nature regenerates after a natural disaster, A Complete Guide to Mount
St. Helens National Volcanic Monument is your ticket. Amazon.com

by Bill McRae, et al
(Paperback - January 1999)
National
Audubon Society Field Guide to the Pacific Northwest
by National Audubon Society, Peter Alden
The Pacific Northwest is a cornucopia of extraordinary outdoor diversity.
Pocket- and purse-friendly, this field guide covers habitats (subalpine
meadows to rain forests to desert shrub to salt marshes) in addition to
topography and geology (with explanations of the Oregon Dunes, Columbia
Plateau Basalts, Mount St. Helens volcano, and a variety of minerals).
Flora and fauna, however, make up the bulk of the book, with 1,000 of the
most common species found in the Pacific Northwest. From mushrooms and
algae to trees and wildflowers, fishes, frogs, flies, birds, and mammals,
each species is identified with a color picture, short description, and
notes on the habitat and season in which you'd encounter it. There's also
an excellent chapter on Northwesterners' favorite topic of conversation--the
weather--plus a guide to constellations and the night sky, for those evenings
when it's clear. It behooves anyone who likes nature and lives in or visits
the Pacific Northwest to carry the easy-to-use and beautifully put-together
Audubon Society Field Guide at all times. --Stephanie Gold - Amazon.com
